[AMBER] Davies Bouldin Index with DME

Dear Amber Users,

I have been looking carefully at the clustering tools in ptraj in particular
the cluster validity testing using the davies bouldin index (DBI). If my
set measure is RMSD then I am able to reproduce the DBI when I calculate it
"by hand" using ptraj... i.e taking the RMSD of each centroid with the
others and applying the DBI formula. However, when I take the set measure
to be the DME then I am unable to reproduce the values that ptraj
calculates. In this case ptraj doesn't have a DME command but it is easy
enough to use the distance command and calculate this matrix by hand. My
question is: how is ptraj calculating the DBI when the set measure is DME?

Thanks in advance, Geoffrey Wood
